Seattle is having a crazy restaurant boom — there are more than 2,600 restaurants in the Seattle area, up 25 percent from a decade ago. So why are so many restaurant owners feeling high anxiety? We'll talk it over with Seattle Times food writer Bethany Jean Clement and Brandon Pettit, owner of Seattle’s Delancey and Dino's Tomato Pie.

This weekend at Ballard's Sunset Tavern, you can see a promising local band called Giants in the Trees. We'll talk with their bass player — former Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic — from his home in southwest Washington.

And if your favorite restaurant closes, maybe you should feel grateful. Seattle physician Tanmeet Sethi gives us a Thanksgiving story of saying thank you for the things in life you don't want.
